Nearly 180,000 people have been evacuated and at least 10 killed in unprecedented wildfires in Los Angeles. Dry winds are expected to pick up and return towards the end of the weekend, threatening to fuel the fires that have already destroyed 10,000 structures.

We would like to hear from people in the US about the impact of the wildfires. Have you been affected by the recent fires? How are you coping? We would like to hear about your experiences.

Though we’d like to hear from you, your safety and security are most important. When recording or sharing your content with us, please put your welfare and the welfare of others first. Extreme weather events can be very unpredictable and carry very real risks.
